President Joe Biden Faces Backlash For Thanksgiving Turkey Tradition
The 81-year-old faced backlash recently after he shared a Thanksgiving photo of him alongside a turkey, which is a staple food of the holiday — however, fans attacked the President for the social media post.
“Even though our Thanksgiving turkeys Liberty and Bell are from Minnesota – they’re named after the famous Liberty Bell in Pennsylvania,” Biden wrote in the post before adding, “And today, they have a new appreciation for the words ‘Let Freedom Ring’.”
The post included a photo of Biden with a turkey in Minnesota, with a sign that read “Happy Thanksgiving 2023.”
Social media users instantly slammed the President of the United States for not having his priorities straight as the war in Israel continues. Users wrote things such as “Traditions like pardoning the turkey feel – and I cannot stress this point enough – completely pointless, especially when you are condoning a literal genocide?!?” and “Stop killing civilians, children, journalists and doctors in Gaza.”
That user then added, “We know the atrocities are even worse in the North now that no one can report on it. Israel went from saying they don’t bomb hospitals to bombing all of them in the North, on top of UN schools – killing children and elderly as they are sleeping. Where is your humanity?”
